It's tragic that troubled and abusive doctors are still able to be around vulnerable trusting patience who know nothing about what the doctors are doing. We urge patients to carefully research their Physicians and urge State officials to do more to warn the unsuspecting public about these problematic positions.

We beg anyone who saw, suspected or suffered sexual violations or violence by a doctor to call police and prosecutors promptly so that dangerous professionals can bekept away from other victims and so that families can be warned about dangerous doctors

(SNAP, the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests, is the world’s oldest and largest support group for clergy abuse victims. We’ve been around for 25 years and have more than 25,000 members. Despite the word “priest” in our title, we have members who were molested by religious figures of all denominations, including nuns, rabbis, bishops, and Protestant ministers. Our website is SNAPnetwork.org)
